The 4th of July celebrations are underway at the US Ambassador's residence in the Phoenix Park.
Several Dublin footballers, past and present are attending for a game of flag football which will also involve Ben Roethlisberger, quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Chairman of the Steelers is former US ambassador to Ireland, Dan Rooney.
Best of catching him lads.
